Board Thread:Pokémon Help/@comment-31398341-20170703145512

This thread is about overrated and underrated pokemon. While many pokemon are overused, there are many pokemon that is underrated and rarely talked about. I make this to give advice to other players as well.

Note:

- Include details on each pokemon with real reason

- We all have opinions, but we can disagree so we can share ideas to each other, but not go far like fighting or offending others.

- Overrated does not always means overused and the same goes for underused. Overrated means people like to brag about it being a very good pokemon while underrated means no one is talking about or underestimating the power of the pokemon.

Example:

OVERRATED:



Skill Link Cinccino

Reason :

- Outclassed mostly by Mega Heracross and Cloyster as Skill Link user.

- Unlike those two pokemon, Cinccino does not possess high attack power and has poor offensive and defensive typing.

- Only real niche for Cinccino is that it has higher base speed, which Cloyster can use Shell Smash to boost its speed too.

UNDERRATED:



Storm Drain Gastrodon - Both physically and specially defensive

- Has Storm Drain too absorb water type moves and gain special attack.

- Decent defenses

- Beats almost every water types in the game

- Can learn Recover, which helps it recover constantly throughout the game

- Good defensive typing

Moveset / EV spread :
